– 6th Gen camera pipe Windows* 7 support
– 3 DVI/HDMI displays support on 6th Gen

Intel v4501 is an OpenGL 4.4 and OpenCL 2.0 driver and exposes 226 OpenGL extensions (GL=205 and WGL=21) for a HD Graphics 530 GPU (Core i5 6600K). There is no Vulkan API support in v4501 🙁 If you need a Vulkan driver, try the v4404.
